The function S_cl_or() tries to take the union of the code points

(for bracketed character classes and synthetic start classes).  These
come in two flavors, one having extra fields in the struct after the

class.  The first paramter to cl_or() is always one of these extended
ANYOFS, but the second parameter may be the shorter form

The function was failing to check if the second one was the longer form
before reading data from beyond the short-form's struct.  This could
cause a segfault, but that wasn't the symptom here.  Instead it copied
that data to the other paramter's struct.  valgrind had set that data to

this error.

During much of the 5.17 series until the failing commit, more ANYOF
nodes were the larger size.  I presume that is why this commit showed up
the problem.

Abolish STRANGE_MALLOC. Now all malloc()s are considered strange :-)

STRANGE_MALLOC was added in 5.002 beta 1 (4633a7c4bad06b47) as part of an
work around for typical mallocs, which had a bad interaction with perl's
allocation needs. Specifically, repeatedly extending an array and then
creating SV heads (such as when reading lines of a file into an array)
could end up with each reallocation for the array being unable to extend in
place, needing a fresh chunk of memory, and the released memory not being
suitable for use as more SV heads, so sitting unused. The solution was for
perl to recycle the old array body as SV heads, instead of returning it to
the system, passing the memory from the the AV code to the SV code using
offer_nice_chunk(), PL_nice_chunk and PL_nice_chunk_size.

STRANGE_MALLOC was actually a signal that the malloc() didn't need
protecting from itself, and to disable the work around.

offer_nice_chunk(), PL_nice_chunk and PL_nice_chunk_size were removed by
commit 9a87bd09eea1d037 in Nov 2010, without any ill effects, hence the
code used when STRANGE_MALLOC was *not* defined is essentially doing extra
work for no benefits.

From the lack of problems reported, one can assume that in the intervening
15 years malloc technology has got significantly improved, and it is probably
better to be honest with it, rather than trying to second guess it.

Hence remove all the non-STRANGE_MALLOC code, and leave everyone using the
much simpler code. See also

to start failing on VMS.  The reason is that the test for locale became
run-time.  This patch restores the test to compile time, by using the
'if' module.

The reason 'if' wasn't used in the original patch was to reduce reliance

get a resolution on p5p on which test groups in the suite can use things

Previously, Configure used to try to post-process the output of uname -a.
This was to support Xenix, which gave output like this:
    sysname=XENIX
    nodename=whatever
    release=2.3.2 .. etc...

Configure attempted to parse that output and build up a $myuname variable
that resembled those generated on traditional Unix systems.
More recently, a user reported uname -a output on a CVS checkout
of NetBSD that also included information such as

       root=username@hostname:/dirname module=src branch=HEAD
